Corporate sites and custom e-commerce with published AED pricing, staging links from week one, and a contract that hands you everything.
Get three quotes for a corporate website in Dubai and you will see the same pattern: a big number, a vague timeline, and a proposal that never says who owns the code. We do it differently. Web Pioneer is a Cairo software engineering company, founded in 2014, building for Gulf clients remotely. You get a staging link early, a clickable update every week, written acceptance criteria before we start, and milestone payments tied to deliverables. Because our cost base is Cairo, not Sheikh Zayed Road, the same build typically comes in 30-50% under a Dubai agency's number. Cairo is one hour from UAE time, so calls happen on your working day, not around it.
Company sites from AED 1,200, custom e-commerce from AED 3,300. The ranges are on this page, not hidden behind a discovery call.
Arabic-first work is what a Cairo studio grows up on. Real RTL layouts, mirrored navigation, and Arabic typography that was designed, not flipped by a plugin.
Remote delivery on your timezone. Weekly calls in UAE working hours, and a staging link you can open between them whenever you want.
At the end you hold everything: code, design files, hosting access, any accounts we opened for the project. That is contract language, and an NDA is on the table before you send us anything private.
Hand-built pages, image optimization and caching set up before launch, not promised after. We test on real phones over 4G, because that is how Dubai actually browses.
Product catalogs, carts and checkout wired to the gateways UAE buyers expect: Telr, Tap, PayTabs or Stripe, with Tabby and Tamara installments where your margin allows it.
Before development starts, every page and feature gets a written pass/fail definition. "Done" is something we both signed, not something we argue about at invoice time.
From the first sprint you get a private URL showing the real site on real hosting. Open it on your phone, forward it to a partner, comment on what you see.
Clean URLs, proper heading structure, meta data in both languages, and hreflang wiring for EN/AR pages. Google should find the right language version, not a duplicate.
Admin training, credentials in your name, and a short written guide for editing content. If your team can use email, they can update the site.
| Scope | Price range | Typical timeline |
|---|---|---|
| Company website | AED 1,200-2,600 | typically 2-4 weeks |
| Advanced corporate site | AED 1,900-4,400 | typically 3-6 weeks |
| Custom e-commerce store | AED 3,300-7,300 | typically 6-10 weeks |
Larger builds exist too: a platform with a companion app MVP runs AED 11,000-29,500. Every quote is itemized against written scope, and you pay in stages, and a stage is only due once you have clicked through it on staging on staging.
We have been doing it since 2014, and Dubai runs just one hour ahead of Cairo, so there is no timezone gap to manage. You see the actual site on a staging link every week, which is more visibility than most clients get from an agency across town. Our company record and Trust Center are published at /company/facts and /trust if you want to check who you are dealing with.
Our engineers are in Cairo, where the cost base is a fraction of Dubai's, and we publish pricing instead of quoting whatever the client looks able to pay. The result typically lands 30-50% below local Gulf agency quotes for equivalent scope. The build process, staging links and written acceptance criteria are the same either way.
Arabic-first bilingual builds are what we grew up on. That means true RTL layouts, mirrored components, Arabic-appropriate fonts and hreflang tags so search engines serve the right language. Machine-translated placeholder text never ships; your Arabic content goes in as written.
Telr, Tap, PayTabs and Stripe are the usual choices for UAE checkout, and we can add Tabby or Tamara if you want to offer installments. We recommend one based on your bank, your transaction volume and your card mix, then wire it into checkout and test real transactions before launch.
You do, contractually, on full payment: source code, design files, hosting access and any store or gateway accounts opened for the project. We keep nothing you would need to hire us again just to change a headline. Handover includes credentials in your name and a written editing guide.
Send us your current site or a one-paragraph brief. We will come back with a written scope, a fixed price in AED and a realistic timeline, usually within two working days. No discovery-call theater.
